About the provider
Hadassah and Antonio have over five years of combined experience in direct support and caregiving. They possess the skills, knowledge, and dedication to make a meaningful impact on the lives of those they serve. Hadassah brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise as an RN working in the ICU at a local hospital. Her extensive background provides a unique and vital asset to their services, always having a licensed nurse on-site. With her compassionate and meticulous approach to healthcare, Hadassah ensures that each resident receives the highest standard of medical care, alongside the emotional and social support they deserve.
Antonio brings a strong foundation in responsibility, problem-solving, and dedication to the table through his role as a Federal Officer with the U.S. Treasury. His career has honed his ability to remain calm under pressure, prioritize safety, and maintain a secure environment - skills that transfer seamlessly into providing high-quality care in a residential setting. Antonio also served as a Community Health Worker at the VA Department of Health, and as a Spanish translator.
Whether hiking, attending local events, or relaxing with their miniature dachshund, Dante, they create a welcoming environment where everyone is treated like family. The couple also enjoys playing bingo, kayaking, and traveling within the United States and Mexico and have a strong support network within their local community.
